Hi everyone. My dad is blaming gaming for our high data use. I usualy only play Rainbow six siege. It would be great if you could tell me how much siege uses for multiplayer per hour. We have a internet speed of 4mb/s. I live in South Africa and play on a US data centre

Thanks to everyone in advance

there is no way that you can do high data usage with online gaming... for example BF1 on mp 64ppl map max data usage is 512kbit....

max 10GB per month but it's if you are playing a lot :)

If anyone in your house has smart phones or tablets connected the your network that's far more likely to cause your house to reach any data cap you may have. A lot of apps continuously update and end even if you go into an apps setting and change it they'll still update if they're connected to wi-fi unless you specifically set them to only connect when you actually open them. Also streaming movies on Netflix or Hulu will use way more data than a game.
